  1. The balsamic strawberry...sounds great! Been to wet to set the camper on our friends farm in KS, No power there, so my Generator will be a female doggy to load in the truck, but it runs.
  2. He’s been traveling the world, and living like a struggling rock star for 40 years. Might have an immune system better than Keith Richards.
  3. Been to AK several times, you will have a great experience. Out this year, kitchen remodel on the agenda. Air travel is probably safe. My buddy Scuba is a Flight Attendant, he was flying all over until a month ago. Wore his PPE, and got nothing, 60, smokes, drinks. Been home for a month and laid off still no issues.
  4. Nice mess of whites. I cast right or left with fly tackle, reel with either hand. Only fish gear right hand and real left.
  5. Have never tried, but eaten plenty of redfish, and sea trout...(same family of fish). They eat well fresh..Dog food if frozen and thawed....Crappie & walleye can last a bit in the freezer, but not those fish.
  6. Pretty much looks like Wuhan China here in the high rent district of STL....Face masks, gloves, if you gotta go IN to shop for groceries, or hardware. You will be publically shamed by the Karen's in the community if someone does not wear PPE and recognizes you shopping....... Burned a nitrile glove to pump gas today. I wear an N95 at work if entering or leaving my office, and keep the door closed. Still lots of folks without access to PPE. Saw lots walking in to QT with no mask, no gloves when I filled up today...1.56 for a gallon of gas is unreal. Did not walk in. Family was down hard for 2 weeks in March/April...cant draw any conclusion from that.
  7. You got an air rifle and a shovel. Aim for the eyeball. Bigger than a plastic dinosaur.

    What's Cooking?

    Scored a huge flat of chicken breast’s last trip, vac packed most into 1.5 lb portions. Cooked one tonight and made Caesar Salad with the real deal home made anchovy, raw egg yolk, Caesar dressing. Think will pick up the stuff for the Colombia Restaurant 1905 Salad for next time. Caesar salad is not Italian BTW. Caesar in Tijuana, MX.
  9. No FW, CWF is smarter than you. Smarter than me. Real deal Eagle Scout, and plus his brother Phil is Eagle as well. Might disagree with them but I’m always glad to see them on the river. Plus the Paul Dallas clan lives in your 5 county area. Think 8 brothers & sisters could get Ozark on you😀!
  10. He is an old fart, (if real) confused, and not a good communicator....He claimed it. But heck, his wife has his balls in a vice, and he cant even get a boat. Not worth any more time.
  11. FW, Rick does not have issue with you, he has issue with Oneshot. I am a United States Marine, and If you are a Marine and you see someone posing/claiming Marine Corps Veteran status without earning the title, you kinda want to kick that person's posterior. Kinda like a Hell's Angel feels when he spots some wanna be wearing a Hell's Angel's patch and riding a moped. Oneshot has been called out. He can produce his DD-214 and remove all doubt. I can produce my DD-214, I'm sure Rick can produce his. Which Company at the MCRD Oneshot? What floor did you stay on at the MCRD? Where did you go for rifle range, swim training, and boot infantry training? What did you see moving in the distance out of your barracks windows at night? What was the big hill you climbed at boot infantry training. 1970, you would have been deployed at least once...Unit you deployed with?..I deployed with VMA-121 Green Knights with Grumman A-6's aboard the USS-Ranger CV-61 in 1988. Deployed again to Desert Shield/Storm in Bahrain with VMFA-314 Black Knights...wrenched on F-18's for them. Not current on it...but think there are only 3 Marine divisions....I was in the 3rd Marine Air Wing...Never heard of a 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, or 10th division of anything in the USMC...One deployed, one coming home to train, one training to relieve the deployed.
  12. If you have that why leave? Good for you.
  13. It is crazy. I don’t agree with your statement, therefore you are stupid. Magical belief systems. I believe, therefore true. You can’t argue with people like that. Wish they would teach “Logic” in grade school.
  14. This stuff has been gotten bat monkey dodo crazy, and it has exposed allot of systematic disorder and flat out stupidity. Take care of yourself and family. Be kind to others. The less you fuel this dumpster fire of emotion, & stupidity, the better off you will be.
  15. Fishing up North seems to wait until Father’s Day, 4th of July. Labor Day can be great if you hit the late hex hatch.
  16. Your bass raider appears to be more suitable for a pond, not twisty creeks like the Huzzah, our Courtois. It’s not uncommon to have a need to drag around/ over a dead tree or over a shallow shoal. You could find spots to use both boats near STL, and a man can’t have too many boats. Get your fly stuff at Hargrove’s Fly Shop in STL. Bring a 6 pack by and stay awhile, when this crazy stuff subsides.

    What's Cooking?

    Do need more meat. Have ordered a pig from some friends who raise them. Looking for a half a cow if someone wants to split one.

    What's Cooking?

    Julia Childs burger mix. Ground beef, S&P, caramelized onions & garlic, some thyme, one egg beaten.
  19. Never really fish them. I like a Mann’s 1 minus this time of year, and the swim jig.
  20. Little Rat Fink found the chromatic tuner that she misplaced. Love that old Rat Fink Hot Rod stuff!
  21. Awesome! Still have not been fishing since January. Plan to load the kayaks, hitch the camper, and tow to a friends hobby farm in KS next week. It's my oldest girls 13th Birthday, and she is getting a 12' SOT kayak, and some other stuff. Girls have not left the house in two months and they need to get out. Our friends property has access to a 350 acre lake with LMB and Hybrid Striped Bass & Whites...Not much pressure, only saw 3-4 boats a day fishing last time there. Will do some shooting too.

  23. JOHN 5 Paco de Lucia could flat out play. This guy can too..Played lead for Marilyn Mason, and now Rob Zombie, plus John 5 and the Creatures. Have been a little bored, so pulled a guitar out of the basement. Working on Buddy Holly’s “Not Fade Away”, Doc Watson’s “Tom Dooley, and some easy flamenco finger pick stuff to dust off the cob webs. Plus the songs my 10 yr old is learning. She will probably surpass me in short order if she sticks with it.
  24. Some classic Hee Haw.'Where O
  25. Heard that John Travolta was tested for the Covid. Turned out to be Saturday Night Fever. He is Staying Alive, but has Chills that are Multiplying.
